Abstract
Microbes are ubiquitous and underpin ecosystem functions across the globe. Over the last decade, the expansion of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies has allowed unprecedented insights into these functionally important communities, but often in a purely descriptive (stamp-collecting) manner. This talk focuses on combining large-scale global experiments, NGS approaches, and ecoinformatics to robustly address and model how microbial communities respond to environmental change across local-to-global scales and in marine, freshwater and soil ecosystems.
Series This talk is part of the Behaviour, Ecology & Evolution Seminar Series series.
